Question

write the answer of this equation

5(x-10)=3x-10​

Answer 1

Answer:

Simplifying

5x + -10 = 3x + 10

Reorder the terms:

-10 + 5x = 3x + 10

Reorder the terms:

-10 + 5x = 10 + 3x

Solving

-10 + 5x = 10 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

-10 + 5x + -3x = 10 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 5x + -3x = 2x

-10 + 2x = 10 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

-10 + 2x = 10 + 0

-10 + 2x = 10

Add '10' to each side of the equation.

-10 + 10 + 2x = 10 + 10

Combine like terms: -10 + 10 = 0

0 + 2x = 10 + 10

2x = 10 + 10

Combine like terms: 10 + 10 = 20

2x = 20

Divide each side by '2'.

x = 10

Simplifying

x = 10
